I have been involved in
the fitness industry for over 25 years. Prior to first becoming an
aerobic instructor I was a trained dancer. I became injured while
dancing and
during my recovery I was introduced to Strength Training. I
immediately feel in love with strength training and once I learned
of all the important benefits I knew I had to teach others about it.
I have been a certified
Aerobic instructor since 1989 and was among the first group of
instructors to become certified for teaching Step Aerobics in 1992.
I earned my Personal trainer certification in 1994. In 1998 I
became certified to teach Yoga and learned of the benefits of
relaxation and stress reduction. This prompted me to attend school for massage therapy and I was awarded my certification for
Deep Tissue Therapeutic Massage in 1999.
When I turned 40 in 1996
I decided I would take on the challenge of competitive body
building and during the next 5 years, until 2001, successfully
competed in many shows earning several first place awards.
I started my own personal
training business in 1998 and own a private personal fitness training gym and
therapeutic massage facility. I am located in Reeders, which is near Tannersville and the crossing outlets in the beautiful Pocono mountains.
